Tracy Beaker star Richard Wisker has made a surprise career change – by joining racy adult site OnlyFans.
The actor, 29, played Liam O’Donovan in CBBC’s Tracy Beaker Returns from 2010 to 2012. Richard reprised the role in the spin-off show The Dumping Ground in 2014 and 2018 too.
Since then, Liam has continued his acting profession – starring in recent BBC show Flatmates. But he has also swerved into the world of adult modelling by signing up for OnlyFans.

In 2023, Richard confirmed he had signed up to the platform – and hinted it was down to the influx of requests from fans. Taking to his Instagram Story, he shared a snap of him lying down and posing for the camera as well as a shirtless picture.

Richard captioned the snap: “So you have all been asking… I have listened… Only for the next couple of hours – hit the link for the best deal ever. It’s basically for free, I guess.”
He then embedded a link out to his OnlyFans page which claims to contain “VIP exclusive content”. The racy page is still active as of 2024.
Richard’s first television role was back in 2008 in ITV1’s The Bill in 2008. He also appeared in Law & Order UK. From 2010 to 2012, he played Liam in CBBC’s Tracy Beaker Returns – where he was nominated for a children’s BAFTA for Best Actor.
During that period he also presented CBBC’s Friday Download and appeared alongside Dani Harmer once more as Rich in Dani’s Castle. The show finished in 2015 and he reprised his role as Liam again in Tracy Beaker spin-off series The Dumping Ground.

Richard also had a leading role on BBC’s sitcom Flatmates where he played Declan from 2019 to 2021. He’s due to appear in a movie called Supernova too – with the film going into post-production in 2019 but is yet to be released.
As for what Richard’s former Tracy Beaker co-stars are up to now, Dani Harmer, who played Tracy, has continued to keep busy over the years. In 2012, she took part in Strictly Come Dancing where she came in fourth place. And more recently, she reprised her role as Tracy for new spin-off show My Mum Tracy Beaker.
